— THIS ISN’T THE KING ARTHUR YOU KNOW. —

Written by longtime collaborators Niall McNeil, Marcus Youssef, and Veda Hille, King Arthur’s Night is epic in scale and features a radically inclusive ensemble of artists. Refined, brutal, crude and tender, King Arthur’s Night tests what we know about the limits of theatre, language and our collective understanding of the narratives that are permitted to shape our world. Produced by Neworld Theatre (Vancouver, BC).
